The program below involves a track that a car races on. The game lasts for a set time. The program is setup to have a speed control for the Pro Racer. The more you press up arrow, the faster Pro Racer goes. The more you press down arrow, the slower Pro Racer goes. The use of trees and buildings as breeds is included as well as a way to remove them from the race track. Staying on the track is harder than it looks.
This program below creates robotic breeds that travel a track. It uses the colors of terrain to make the breeds move a certain way to stay on the track and off the grass. If you wish to include robotic racer breeds, you will need to understand this programming.
